Sherlock Holmes
Sherlock Holmes: The Last Act
★★★☆☆ An Epilogue
The scene is set. Dr Watson, having succumbed to a fatal heart attack, has just been buried, and Sherlock Holmes, his long-term partner and friend has returned alone to the Baker Street flat they shared.
Sherlock Holmes: The Final Curtain
★★☆☆☆ Undemanding:
A lavish staging and some spirited performances cannot redeem a thin script in the Theatre Royal Bath and Kenny Wax’s touring production of Sherlock Holmes: The Final Curtain, at the King’s until Saturday.
The Secret of Sherlock Holmes
★★★☆☆ Elemental
It is not so much elementary as elemental at the King’s this week, as Jeremy Paul’s tribute to the great late-Victorian detective and his faithful friend and companion takes the stage under Robin Herford’s atmospheric direction.
